  • Abstract
    FOR MANY YEARS the ¿iron horse¿ rode alone having no equal or competition. The railroad conquered the wilderness with a belch of smoke and tied the far places together with ribbons of steel. Legends were woven around it and ballads created. Excesses brought about legal restrictions, but still the railroad prospered.
